Turning Injured Trees into Veteran Trees: Tree Morphology & Care w/ Patrick George

This meeting will be held in-person at Reedy Creek Nature Center as well as on Zoom. You can register for this event today.

Patrick George, owner of Heartwood Tree Service, will start with an explanation of tree biology and structure in nature. Then, how we can intervene in the growth cycle to improve site impact, growth in man made environments and how to help trees survive the extremes in weather that we are already seeing. We’ll also hear about managing risk on older trees and how to provide peace of mind through reductive pruning. To prune or not to prune, that is the question.

Patrick started this company 40 years ago with a belief that trees can be more important than line items on a budget. An attraction to the mystery of trees has led to a devotion to the science of understanding how to keep them alive.
